Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Safety set-up. Each motorised door gets the safety devices its risk assessment calls for and is force-tested before use.
Free survey. Opening, headroom, obstructions, fixings and power all measured before we quote.
Conformity paperwork. Declaration of Performance, Declaration of Conformity and user instructions on handover.
Loading equipment. The door, leveller, shelter and impact protection are specified together so the whole bay works as one.
Aftercare. Once fitted, we can service the door on a schedule and repair it, along with doors from other installers.

Jobs we can carry out

Fitting a freezer door with heated frame and inside release to a new cold room within a food production unit.
Phasing the replacement of several loading bay doors over consecutive weekends so goods-in stays open during the week.
Adding a high-speed fabric door inside an existing shutter so the main door can stay open through the working day.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Braintree are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.

How the work is organised

Most installations in Braintree can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.

Questions from businesses in Braintree

Is the survey free for sites in Braintree?

Yes, for new installations and replacements. We measure the opening and the space around it, check fixings, power and obstructions, and talk through how the door is used before preparing a written quote. Repair and service visits are charged separately.

Can you replace an old door at our Braintree unit and take the old one away?

Yes. Strip-out and disposal of the old door is priced as a separate line, along with any new framing or making good the opening needs. We confirm these details at survey so nothing is left to agree on the day.

How soon could a new door be installed at our Braintree premises?

It depends mainly on the manufacturer's lead time for a made-to-measure door, which we confirm in the quote. Installation is then booked around your operations, and most single doors are fitted and commissioned in a day.
